Golden Kerala Congee

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: long-grain rice, olive oil, yellow onion and set within reach of the stove.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the fresh ginger in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the congee and let it golden, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the chicken stock along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Pour in the chicken stock, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with toasted nuts right before serving.
7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
